Conservative management of giant omphalocele in the neonate period is a known strategy to allow tissue growth aiding in anatomical closure. However, rupture of the covering sac is considered an absolute contraindication for continuing conservative management. We report a case where a ruptured sac of giant omphalocele was ingeniously sutured to restore its integrity, and conservative management continued. The giant omphalocele later became a huge ventral hernia and was gradually reduced and primary closure was achieved with multiple surgeries over a period of 4 years.
新生儿期巨大脐膨出的保守治疗是一种已知的策略,可促进组织生长以辅助解剖学闭合。然而,覆盖囊的破裂被认为是继续保守治疗的绝对禁忌症。我们报告了一例病例,其中巨大脐膨出的破裂囊被巧妙缝合以恢复其完整性,并继续进行保守治疗。该巨大脐膨出后来变成了一个巨大的腹疝,并逐渐缩小,在4年的时间里通过多次手术实现了一期缝合。
